Making Good is the podcast of Church Alley—a small business in New Orleans, LA. This podcast talks about all things small business, including nutrition, challenges, and learning from each other. We hope to share information and conversations that empower small business owners to take care of themselves so they can make good on serving their communities. Church Alley opened as a cafe in 2013, serving delicious locally roasted coffee, homemade pastries, and lunch. In 2020, we expanded our offerings by partnering with over a dozen local small businesses looking for new ways to stay in business. We met so many amazing people doing good work and we couldn’t keep the conversations to ourselves! The cafe closed in November 2024. Church Alley continues as a pantry line that can be found around New Orleans and as a small nutrition & habits coaching business. Small business owners face higher rates of autoimmune disease and are more likely to be dyslexic and have ADHD than the general population. This podcast shares good information for small business owners to take care of themselves so they can keep serving.

Brandi and spoke about styling yourself to meet who you are and your current lifestyle. This was a great conversation. I've followed Brandi's work for years. I love the simplicity of how she explains styling clothes for how your body feels right now and not being afraid to let go of all those clothes we hold on to for too long.
Brandi Johnson is personal style expert and body confidence coach, learning and development leader, speaker, and the founder of Brandeis Nicole, a personal style & image coaching firm.
After earning degrees at Brown University and UC Berkeley, Brandi led a storied career as a learning and development leader and executive at a national consulting firm. She quickly earned a reputation for style along with program design and training, and found herself coaching her colleagues on looking their best. During that time, a dramatic weight gain from an endometriosis medication left her frustrated with ill-fitting clothes and wreaked havoc on her confidence. Determined to find a better way, she was selected to join an intensive, invite-only training with Stacy London from TLC’s What Not to Wear, where she developed her signature methodology for personal styling, focusing on the science of style, body shape and fit.
An educator at heart, Brandi has styled well over 1,000 clients, has presented to crowds varying from 2500 attendees to round table group discussions, and is known for her transformational approach to style as a pathway to confidence and authentic self-expression. She has been called "style magic" by numerous clients and helps women of all shapes and sizes, especially women navigating changing bodies, find the joy that happens when they confidently step into who they are with an effortless wardrobe to match.
Brandi enjoys dance, fruity cocktails, gets embarrassed for other people when watching reality shows, and has never met a french fry she didn’t like. A Bay Area native who most recently called Brooklyn home for 15 years, she now resides in Houston, TX and loves the H-town charm.
